Resilience of a community after an extreme event depends on the resilience different infrastructure including buildings. There is no well-established approach to characterize and integrate building for community-level applications. This paper investigates how potential functionality measures can be used quantify indexes, results could aggregated set buildings provide indicator entire community. The quantification based repair cost, occupancy level, asset value. An archetype city block with four defined. individual each are combined using weight-based index block. study then considers small-scale communities number investigate influence contractor availability collapse probability indexes Both parameters shown important when quantifying index. It also demonstrated that overall directly influenced by findings presented here useful both from perspective basis its inventory, as well possible inclusion into holistic framework aims resilience.
